But not as badass as the first guy that tried milk... Hey... You see that funny looking thing over there? No... The one with the balloon hanging down... Well I'm gonna squeeze that balloon... And whatever comes out... I'M GOING TO DRINK IT!🤣🤣🤣
I know a relative of Perrins. Apparently the original mix was forgotten in the basement of the pharmacy until for some reason the pharmacy business was moved and it was found. Someone tried it and the rest is history.
Usually people find out this kind of stuff by total accident. That's what they said about this. They tried copying a fish sauce, and tasted it fresh and it was horrible. They stored it in a cellar and forgot about it until a couple months later. What they found was gold after it fermented.
Worcestershire has such a unique flavor its easy to see why its lasted the test of time. I was shocked to find out what is actually in it. I bet most seafood haters had no idea it contains anchovies as i didn't either.
I love this stuff. I wish they sold it by the gallon! The ancient Romans loved a fermented fish sauce called Garum. Such sauce is very popular in Vietnam and Asia in general.
They do sell it by the gallon. I buy the gallon jugs off amazon. They're mainly intended for restaurants, but I use it in everything I cook, I even drink it on its own sometimes (just like shots of it, I don't have like a pint glass full of it), so it's a lot more frugal to buy a gallon jug of it than to buy tons of smaller bottles of it. It costs more in terms of the up front cost, but it's much cheaper per litre. But yeah, it makes all food taste better, because it's an MSG bomb, it's packed full of it because fish (and especially anchovies) naturally contain loads of MSG, as does meat, vegetables and fruit such as tomatoes, cheese, soy sauce, fish sauce, and oyster sauce, among other things. There's a reason why pizza (and really all Italian food) tastes great, it's because they combine one MSG bomb (tomatoes) with another MSG bomb (cheese). Parmesan cheese in particular has tons of MSG in it. I also buy bags of pure MSG off amazon too. So I add Worcestershire sauce AND pure MSG to everything I cook, because as much as the MSG helps make Worcestershire sauce taste amazing, I just love the taste of it so much anyway. Otherwise I'd probably just use the pure MSG on its own. Worcestershire sauce makes everything taste better. It's never been a problem when I add MSG to food and serve it to other people, because it's a complete myth that it's bad for you and causes headaches. It's entirely placebo. Every single study done on it, people will be given an MSG-free meal and told it contains a lot of added MSG, and they'll complain of headaches and so on. And then give them a meal with a ton of added MSG in it but tell them it has none in it, and they won't complain about headaches or any other ailment. It's actually good for you. Because if you replace all the salt you add to food when cooking it with MSG, you'll reduce your sodium intake by a huge amount, because MSG has less than ¼ of the sodium in it as table salt does. So it's great for people who need to reduce their salt intake. They just replace all the salt they use with MSG, and their doctors will love them for it, as will their loved ones, because they'll be a lot healthier.
Fish Sauce is what it’s called, though it had a lot of regional names. It tastes especially salty. It’s a pretty acquired taste, but I recommend giving it a try.
I saw a documentary about Roman food once, and they mentioned a favored commodity, a sauce called "garum" which Romans were mad for. It was a sauce whose main ingredient was fermented fish. The documentary then went on to say that today, Worcestershire sauce was the closest thing to compare it to. Now we know why...lol. Fermented fish....who knew!
@@Madmen604 fun trivia: this asian variant of garum "fish sauce" is the distant ancestor of modern ketchup, after it passed through both evolution in both English, and American hands! "Ketchup" is the english pronunciation of the ancient Chinese term "膎汁" (the Americans are the ones who added tomatoes)
My other half is filipino and they have Patis a fermented salty fish sauce. Hold the nose and drink a gallon of water! 'Wustesure' is my favourite and I can take it neat! oh yeah! And it doesn't stink the whole place up! I do think there's more water and sugar in the US version though.
What I find interesting is they mature each ingredient separately as opposed to the sauce as a whole. I assume the reason is to ensure a standardized Lea and Perrin's flavor profile, whereas batch fermintation can vary widely from batch to batch.
They'd have a bacterial hell if they made all that shit together at once 🤣 Not to even scratch the surface of how most of the ingredients would be completely devoured by the acidity in the time it takes to prepare
That sauce is literally ESSENTIAL in my kitchen... All my meat and poultry dishes are prepared with that sauce, because it gives a flavor that is simply unique! I knew about the tamarind and the anchovies in the recipe, but didn't know about the fermentation part... Really cool!
I live in New Jersey and never knew there was a Lea & Perrins factory here! I've absolutely loved Lea & Perrins since I was a child - we'd visit my grandmother every weekend and she would always serve loin of pork, and my father would cut it up for me, form a circle on my plate, and pour out some Lea & Perrins into the center. The only thing that's changed, from what I have seen, is that back then the label would have a small hole near the bottom and next to it would be the words "Time to buy more!" I wish they'd bring that back - I don't see how they can call the label 'iconic' without that reminder near the bottom of the bottle!
That sounds hilarious "BrutalMoose" found an old cookbook and made a banana on lettuce with mayonnaise and walnuts. What was wrong with people's taste buds?
Omg!!!! I grew up almost drinking this sauce!!!!! Use it in so many recipes and foods!!!! I hate anchovies, but I'll never give up my Worcester sauce😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 It's a happy sauce!!!! Thank you Lea & Perrins for making such a treasure!!!!🏆
SAME! I despise the smell and taste of almost all fish but I LOVE Lea and Perrins Worcestershire sauce! It is a main player in my home-made salad dressing, it goes in burgers just before getting the pan treatment, it caramelizes so well in my cast iron pan! It is a subtle background flavor in my beef stew. Could not live without it!
I know UA-cam does that to me all the time.I'm not interested in something in for the next 3 hours I'm watching how they make Worcestershire sauce and the history of it. The other day I watched some old lady in India making food for homeless children and did that for about two and a half hours in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep.lol
I love Worcestershire sauce. I use it as part of my spice arsenal or in my marinades. It is especially good for burgers or meatloaf but it goes well with all meats. I always keep a bottle or 2 on hand.
I drink it straight from the bottle. Not chugs, but like a whisp of a drop I suck in and aerosolize… it’s like an explosion of every amazing flavor all mixed together in perfect harmony. No exaggeration, it’s my favorite tasting substance on earth (that I’ve discovered so far). And only the original… other brands are not even close to the same.
I absolutely love this sauce! It's crazy how this weird combination of ingredients (at first glance at least) can make such an amazing condiment 😋 I sometimes even have a few teaspoons of the sauce without anything else, tastes so fine (only the original Lea & Perrins though) 😁 Greetings from Norway and thanks to our British brothers and sisters for creating this amazing product 🇧🇻🇬🇧💕
@Julia Winfield Yeah same here! :D Also as a quick garnish, just take some corn/peas/beans/whatever frozen or canned vegetables you like, drown them in the sauce (and whatever additional spices you feel like) and heat the whole thing up.

This is the one brand name item i won't skip and use a store brand. I am in my 80's and wouldn't buy anything else. I use it in many items that cook. Thanks Lee & Perrins for your wonderful sauce.
"My god! This is disgusting!" "Yes, indeed it is old chap!" "Well that was clearly a failure. Should we dispose of it then?" "No, I think I'll keep it in my cellar for a few years for some reason." *a few years later as he is eating breakfast, the early morning sun shines through his kitchen window and suddenly a thought occurs* "You know, I think today is the day that I eat more of that horrible sauce that has been rotting away in my cellar for years."
Lea: Remember that putrid sauce we made three years ago? Perrins: Oh yes. Quite horrible indeed. Lea: I'll give you a farthing to try it. Perrins: Right! Let's give it a proper go then! History made.
Maybe not from individuals, but other large corporations. Lol Or maybe from individuals as well, if the ingredients include, semen, urine, excrement, blood, bugs, rodents, etc. Then yes, they would still like to keep it a secret...Lol
I used to have that problem too. Then I broke it down. The sauce is made in Worcester, England (pronounced "worst-ter"), in the shire (kind of a county or area of land in England) of Worcester, therefore... Worcestershire (worster-shire) sauce. Hope this helps!
@@skankhunts42 Thanks! My problem must be my Southern American accent. (or listening ear!) So, it's a three syllable word? (Wust-er-sha-sauce, with no "ire" after the sha "?) It sounds better than "Woo-chester-shire" sauce, which I have heard frequently! (I live in Southern Alabama, near the Gulf of Mexico. It's a nice place.)

I'm from Bengal and there is no such sauce that I've heard of. We do make a lot of fish curries with tamarind juice and pulp or sometimes with mustard paste as well (where we grind soaked mustard seeds, green chillies and salt in mortar and pestle). Those fishes are fresh water fishes from the river Ganges. Those types of curries are still made from fresh ingredients in our homes. Maybe that's what was tasted and the scientists recreated it using anchovy.
You need to try it! Goes great on steaks, in stew, on burgers if it's beef it is probably good with this sauce. I had no idea there was anchovies in it, wouldn't guess but then again what Asians do with oyster sauce is pretty taste too
@@frawgeatfrawgworld they mentioned in the video that the origin is from Bengal which is in eastern part of India and nobody uses anchovies here. I'm just clarifying. I happen to be born and brought up here so I think I'd know
Based on my experience, those bottle fillers don't actual have sensors that can detect whether the bottle is filled completely or not. Instead those filler tubes, the ones you see being inserted to the bottle have two pipe lines. One is used to feed contents into the bottles by means of gravity, sometimes pumped for higher viscosity, and the other to extract, by means of negative pressure pump, excess liquid along the bottle. The bottle is both constantly filled and extracted with contents along the rotating belt with the human impression that there is some complex mechanism that detects if the bottle is filled correctly or not. Also, these kind of machines are easier to maintain compared with other filling machine. I think this design has been around for 50 to 40 years now. I used to maintain Horix Gravity Fillers that's why I know some of this stuff.
The downside to this design is that the excess fluid pumped out of the bottle is returned to the gravity tank above mixing with a newer batch. So when a bottle has some contanminants in it, there is a higher chance that the excess fluid pumped out from it could carry it back to the gravity tank and affect every bottle after it.
All the British Empire returned home falling in love with the women, where as this posh army officer returned home falling in love with fish sauce, how romantic.
I mean it's largely due to the giant waste management areas greeting you on the turnpike as soon as you get off a flight to NYC. Everyone assumes it goes on for the other 8700 square miles.
During the pandemic I remember wandering into a local supermarket & looking at the sauce section, the Lea & Perrins were sold out for months, there were other worcestershire type sauces available, but not real one. But I am not Mr Silly, I always have a few bottles on hand as you never know when you might feel like a bloody mary or a marinade for a perfect steak.
I love every ingredient used. I have anchovy paste for pizza and salad dressing. Tamarind paste makes a delicious and refreshing drink. When it's all added together, OMG! I've been using Worcestershire sauce since I was a small child in southern England. 60+ years later, my pantry here in Texas would be incomplete without a few bottles of this magic brown elixir sitting next to the various bottles of hot pepper sauces.
dcentral we have a more varied cuisine than just about any other nation, precisely because of our empire. Plus, we have statistically better teeth than Americans because dentistry is available to everyone on via the NHS. It does not cover cosmetic treatment like whitening, which is why you don't see so many artificially white teeth but we have fewer extractions and fewer fillings on average than a typical American.
@@dcentral oh dear! Another stereotype monger. Dental health in the UK is actually better than the USA. As for cuisine the 'bad English food' accusations stems from Americans stationed in the UK during WW2 when food was rationed. Let me educate you. Try properly cooked or baked English dishes and you will enter one of the world's best - roast beef & Yorkshire pudding, Cornish pasties, cheddar cheese, Bakewell tart, Victoria sponge, trifle, fish & chips, Eton mess, bangers and mash, Lancashire hotpot, Cornish ice cream, Devonshire clotted cream, stilton, apple pie, jam roll-poly, brown Windsor soup - its all the food of the Gods.
Great product . Love it with my steak & I often use it as a Marinate blend before lighting up the barbecue. Who knew fish & meat could work so well together on the same plate?
Filling a series of bottles so that each bottle is filled to precisely the right level does not imply that all bottles are filled to the same precise level. Your logic is faulty if you think otherwise.
As the story goes, Marco Polo, on his journeys to many lands, collected thousands of bottles of different sauces. Upon his return he presented the sauces to the king who sampled every bottle until he got to the last, which had no label, whereupon he picked it up and asked "What's this here sauce?"
When I tasted Worcestershire Sauce for the first time I thought it was REALLY similar to jík-chòow sauce, I'd say they did a pretty good job of recreating it.
Tangy, zesty, is the only thing that I can think of to describe it but I don't think that probably really helps you any if you've never tried it. Get yourself a bottle, a nice rib eye steak, and enjoy. I even like it on plain spaghetti pasta.
The geezer who tried it after a couple of years was a badass.
That was a true Brit moment I'm sure
Fermentrd fish is used all over the world.

I used to have that problem too. Then I broke it down.
The sauce is made in Worcester, England (pronounced "worst-ter"), in the shire (kind of a county or area of land in England) of Worcester, therefore... Worcestershire (worster-shire) sauce.
Hope this helps!
Thank you Mike!
@@mikehurley7945 thanks, mike. you're a good teacher.
mike hurley well.. no. It’s pronounced wust-er-sha here in England and people normally just refer to it as Worcester (wuster) sauce
@@skankhunts42 Thanks! My problem must be my Southern American accent. (or listening ear!)
So, it's a three syllable word? (Wust-er-sha-sauce, with no "ire" after the sha "?)
It sounds better than "Woo-chester-shire" sauce, which I have heard frequently! (I live in Southern Alabama, near the Gulf of Mexico. It's a nice place.)

“Iconic orange label”
I’ve literally never seen a bottle of this that didn’t have a brown label
Facts
SAME
For real! Looking at the bottle right now to marinate a salmon, and its brown as all get out!
Lydia Halliday the bottle I have is an orange label
Its orange in Australia, where you guys from?
Well, I never knew Worcestershire sauce was made with anchovy. No wonder it tastes so good. It's a literal MSG bomb
Never read the ingredients?
Anchovy just tastes like salt cheaper to use salt instead
@@SamiLo2 Was that not implied in the original comment? Or do you just not interpret what you read
MSG is not unhealthy, by the way, so don’t worry!
Where are you getting MSG from Anchovies ? MSG comes from hydrolyzing vegetable Protein.
I never would have guessed anchovy’s was part of the ingredients!
It says on the bottle.
I'm from Bengal and there is no such sauce that I've heard of. We do make a lot of fish curries with tamarind juice and pulp or sometimes with mustard paste as well (where we grind soaked mustard seeds, green chillies and salt in mortar and pestle). Those fishes are fresh water fishes from the river Ganges. Those types of curries are still made from fresh ingredients in our homes. Maybe that's what was tasted and the scientists recreated it using anchovy.
You need to try it! Goes great on steaks, in stew, on burgers if it's beef it is probably good with this sauce. I had no idea there was anchovies in it, wouldn't guess but then again what Asians do with oyster sauce is pretty taste too
@@angelbrumfield6134 Beef is banned in most states in India as cows are considered to be holy so we'll probably have to have the sauce by itself...
@@KushagraJuneja good on goat and chicken too.
That's because it's an east Asian sauce which is still in use today commonly and always has been.
@@frawgeatfrawgworld they mentioned in the video that the origin is from Bengal which is in eastern part of India and nobody uses anchovies here. I'm just clarifying. I happen to be born and brought up here so I think I'd know
Based on my experience, those bottle fillers don't actual have sensors that can detect whether the bottle is filled completely or not. Instead those filler tubes, the ones you see being inserted to the bottle have two pipe lines. One is used to feed contents into the bottles by means of gravity, sometimes pumped for higher viscosity, and the other to extract, by means of negative pressure pump, excess liquid along the bottle. The bottle is both constantly filled and extracted with contents along the rotating belt with the human impression that there is some complex mechanism that detects if the bottle is filled correctly or not. Also, these kind of machines are easier to maintain compared with other filling machine. I think this design has been around for 50 to 40 years now. I used to maintain Horix Gravity Fillers that's why I know some of this stuff.
The downside to this design is that the excess fluid pumped out of the bottle is returned to the gravity tank above mixing with a newer batch. So when a bottle has some contanminants in it, there is a higher chance that the excess fluid pumped out from it could carry it back to the gravity tank and affect every bottle after it.
Cool story bro
@@jqv94 Yeah, but given Worcestershire sauce, it'd probably kill anything that it pumped out. /s
Lol
Could you give us more detail?
Why am I watching this I've literally never used this sauce before
Winnie Yao I haven’t either
You should.
You're missing out. Add some Lea & Perrin's to cheese on toast as it's under the grill or a wee bit to some spaghetti bolognese, it's amazing.

I always wondered how "what's this here sauce" was made, now I know.
"What's this here" 😆
During the pandemic I remember wandering into a local supermarket & looking at the sauce section, the Lea & Perrins were sold out for months, there were other worcestershire type sauces available, but not real one. But I am not Mr Silly, I always have a few bottles on hand as you never know when you might feel like a bloody mary or a marinade for a perfect steak.
I love every ingredient used. I have anchovy paste for pizza and salad dressing. Tamarind paste makes a delicious and refreshing drink. When it's all added together, OMG!
I've been using Worcestershire sauce since I was a small child in southern England. 60+ years later, my pantry here in Texas would be incomplete without a few bottles of this magic brown elixir sitting next to the various bottles of hot pepper sauces.

for a country that colonized half the planet, their cuisine is more tragic than their dentistry.
@@dcentral we were too busy colonizing, food just wasn't our thing lol.
dcentral we have a more varied cuisine than just about any other nation, precisely because of our empire. Plus, we have statistically better teeth than Americans because dentistry is available to everyone on via the NHS. It does not cover cosmetic treatment like whitening, which is why you don't see so many artificially white teeth but we have fewer extractions and fewer fillings on average than a typical American.
@@dcentral oh dear! Another stereotype monger. Dental health in the UK is actually better than the USA. As for cuisine the 'bad English food' accusations stems from Americans stationed in the UK during WW2 when food was rationed. Let me educate you. Try properly cooked or baked English dishes and you will enter one of the world's best - roast beef & Yorkshire pudding, Cornish pasties, cheddar cheese, Bakewell tart, Victoria sponge, trifle, fish & chips, Eton mess, bangers and mash, Lancashire hotpot, Cornish ice cream, Devonshire clotted cream, stilton, apple pie, jam roll-poly, brown Windsor soup - its all the food of the Gods.

Like surf and turf
narrator: "each bottle is filled to precisely the right level"
video: bottles are clearly not all filled to same precise level
maybe the bottles are not the same size ;p
Walls of the bottles are not even in thickness, it's the same volume in each bottle but different levels because the bottles vary in thickness
@@PhantomSquid and you know this to be a fact how?
Filling a series of bottles so that each bottle is filled to precisely the right level does not imply that all bottles are filled to the same precise level.
Your logic is faulty if you think otherwise.

So who was the guy who decided it was a good idea to put the year old anchovy sauce in their mouth.
Probably a victim of the munchies.
The Anchovies are 3 Years old. It was the Onions and Garlic that are stored for 1 year.
Italians and Southeast Asians use fish sauce. This has huge cultural influences. Tamarind is rarely seen in Western culture
This simpleton has the least idea of fermentation
The Romans invented an earlier form of Worcestershire sauce with the same concept consisting of fermented anchovies.
